Tips and Tricks for Perfect Chocolate Rod Pretzels with Peppermints

  • We have made these with both chocolate chips and with melting chocolate candy and prefer the candy type coating. It melts well, hardens quickly and the toppings stick easily to it.
  • Coating the crackers works best if you have a shallow tray or plate to put the chocolate in and then roll the crackers in the chocolate.
  • The same works for the topping, place it on a plate and then sprinkle on the topping.
  • It’s easiest to only coat the top 1/3 of the cracker, but people seem to like crackers completely covered in chocolate.
  • Lay these on a sheet of parchment paper or wax paper to cool and allow the chocolate to harden completely.
  • The little plastic bags that are for individually wrapping cookies make a suitable cover for these treats.
  • If they aren’t wanting to harden up, place the whole tray in the freezer for a few minutes.
  • And HEY! If you want to share with someone about the history of candy canes and impress them beyond belief (or bore them) then go learn about that right here!

A Verse To Share

I’m sure you have been on the brunt end of someone else’s lies. I know I have. Honesty is always the best policy. Always.

Proverbs 6:16-19

There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.

I made some with Nutella and some with peanut butter (I left the peppermint off the peanut butter ones). Delicious! The peanut butter treats tasted similar to Girl Scout cookies!
